The proper answer is none as there are only chairs in the rooms.

In which case neither are you, you're in the room with the crayons.

This is a painful question for me. As a nipper my brother who suffered chronic ear infections was always getting all the attention at the doctors so one day in the surgery garden I stuck a holly berry up my nose. Great fuss made, GP hoiked it out with no problem and juvenile munchausen syndrome noted.
I then graduated to a purple wax crayon a few weeks later. Only it wouldn't come out. Purple snot for a while till the pong got the better of the family. GP couldn't get it out so it was off to ENT. I still vividly remember being held down by two nurses while someone ferreted round up my nose with a pair of forceps to remove said crayon. It hurt. Lots. There were no repeat performances.
So the crayon's in the bedroom with only one chair and one is enough unless you like pain. And that's the correct answer unless you work for AQUA or some other exam board when there doesn't have to be a correct answer.

I think that you'll find that the correct answer is:



blue!

I hope many will draw from your experience.
